Hey there,

 

short description: I got two ident columns, but different results. Why?

Somehow, it calculates -1 day in the left column. 

 

I only add 1 year to the source column (28th is the correct day)

 

Help....

 

I have the same question (0)

    Hi @wshalex123 ,

     

    Please check the advanced configuration of the fields and see if they are time zone independent or not.  I think this configuration will be different on the two fields.

    @wshalex123, I agree with @dpoggemann , this is because the Jubilee_1year field has the “Time Zone Adjustment” value set to Local User, and you should change it to Time zone independent

    Hey @AhmedSalih & @dpoggemann,

     

    wshalex123_0-1669706851741.pngwshalex123_1-1669706878351.png

     

    ... this is my source column. As you suggested, i changed it to time zone independent. The wrong date didnt change in the "calculated" columns, but i deleted the wrong column and check out if this appears again. (because all other "Jubilee year columns" are working fine. 

    The strange thing here still is, that if i change the date in the source column manually, it always fills this cell with -1 day. E.g. if you type in "30.11.2022", it fills out the cell with "29.11.2022" (like in the picture above). 

     

    It's even more strange, that in the "calculated columns" it adds the years to the date i put in (30.11.2022) and not to the date it shows (29.11.2022). Check this screenshot:

    (every second column is the date where i want to remind the company of the jubilee)

     

    Do you know whats wrong here?

    does it maybe differ on how i enter the date? Like if i enter it with with the keyboard or the "date picker"?
